Coloured bath resurfacing in Newnham, done in place
Most suites take one or two days. Everything is resurfaced where it stands, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Common call-outs are for a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom and faded or patchy colour, in avocado, pampas and pink baths, coloured basins and whole bathroom suites.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Bedford Borough. Care for the new finish like a re-enamelled bath: gentle cleaners, no suction mats.

What we can’t put right
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- The inside of a toilet bowl, unless we’ve agreed it will last
- Items cracked right through
- Fittings and taps (these are masked, not recoloured)
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.

What coloured bath resurfacing costs
Resurfacing from £350. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The material
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Quotes from your pictures
You can take the pictures on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Where you are, by postcode
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- What it’s made of, if you know
Send us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Newnham, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Work for landlords and builders
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Bedford Borough and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Questions from Newnham
How do I book?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Are there extra charges for Newnham?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Repair or replace in Newnham?
Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Resurfacing changes the colour without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
